Generally, I'm too poor to buy cold cereal. Breakfast usually consists of something cheap and practical (like oatmeal or a peanut butter sandwhich). BUT in my overwheleming free time, I've managed to become slightly more culturally affluent by watching a few cartoons (as well as the sugared cereal commercials that go with them).

Here's the thing, The Trix Rabbit can't seem to get breakfast because those MEAN KIDS won't share ("Silly Rabbit, Trix are for kids"). And then there's the Lucky Charms Lepracauhn who runs away from kids who just want to eat his cereal - MEAN LEPRACAUHN!

The Trix kids should share the Trix-is-for-kids-cereal with the Lucky Charms kids, and the Leprachahun should share his Lucky Charms with the Rabbit - that way everyone would be able to eat breakfast! (Breakfast is important if you don't want to be crabby all day long) And then no one would be cranky, and peace would break out in cartoon-commercial land.

In other news, Planet Julie is collapsing (maybe you noticed!) or perhaps it's blossming (I'm not sure)/
Right brain thinks that life is grand! Right Brain is kind of excited to have TIME to do things. Time to say "yes" to people (instead of being too busy). Time to bicycle along the river (I found a georgeous trail that is not ruined by over population!) Time to play frisbee, read, color, daydream, go out for lunch, help with stuff, or just do nothing all afternoon/evening/weekend.

Left Brain doesn't like having nothing to do. Left brain is afraid of dead brain cells. Left brain rolls her eyes when I giggle over commercials for cereal and doggie power bars. Left brain is scared of being lonely in the afternoon, scared of moping around the house feeling awful, or bored. Left brain really wants me to figure out what's next, get a full time job, move somewhere warm, pay off my loans and contribue to society. Left brain doesn't want to enjoy this forced break; Left Brain would rather worry, make contigency plans, find something "useful" to do. Left brain is very cranky.
